About this playlist

Rap-rock is the perfect soundtrack for three things: bong rips, pole dances and -- that's right -- sweaty-ass workout routines. From Kid Rock's "Cowboy" and Rage Against the Machine's "Killing in the Name" to House of Pain's "Jump Around" and 311's "Down," what all these modern classics have in common is gnarly grooves and gratuitous levels of swagger. Let's face it: Whether you're hitting the treadmill or the free weights or the Pilates ball, groove and swagger are necessary ingredients for any successful workout mix. Like a trainer barking in your ear when he sees you dogging it, rap-rock is pure sonic adrenaline, pushing you right at that pivotal moment in your workout when pushing is exactly what you require. In addition to the aforementioned jams, you also get key cuts from Hollywood Undead, Beastie Boys, Tech N9ne and the legendary Run-D.M.C. So as soon as you slip those buds into your ears, prepare to go insane in the brain (and the, uh, membrane) with the most awesome hits rap-rock has ever produced. Suit up. Turn it up. Get ripped!
